Pattern description
This counted cross-stitch Easter design features a cheerful brown bunny with pink inner ears and a sweet expression, holding a colorful basket overflowing with spring blooms. The composition centers the rabbit above a decorative band of geometric patterns in jewel tones—rich blues, pinks, and golds—creating a sophisticated yet playful holiday card. At 46×46 stitches on 15 DMC thread colors, the intermediate skill level rewards stitchers with crisp color transitions and satisfying detail work.
The palette moves from warm browns and golden yellows in the bunny and flowers to deep navy and sapphire blues in the basket's ornamental base, giving this Easter card a more saturated, heirloom-quality mood than typical pastel holiday designs. Whether framed as a spring decoration or stitched into a card cover, the design's balanced composition and rich color blocking make it ideal for gift-giving to Easter enthusiasts who appreciate needlework that feels both festive and refined.
